Cooking Steps

Roast the Veg
1
  • Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
  • Chop the sweet potato into 2cm chunks. Place on a lined baking tray. Toss with salt, pepper and a drizzle of oil.
  • Roast on the top shelf of the oven until tender, 25-30 mins.
  • Meanwhile, halve the tomatoes
  • When the sweet potato has been cooking for 10 mins, add the tomatoes to the tray with a drizzle of oil. Mix together and return to the top shelf for the remaining cooking time, 10-15 mins.
Fry the Veg
2
  • Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
  • Trim the courgette then slice into 1cm thick rounds. 
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • When hot, add the onion and courgette and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 6-8 mins.
Crisp the Croutons
3
  • Meanwhile, tear the baguette into small, bite-sized croutons.
  • Add the croutons to a (separate) lined baking tray with a drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt.
  • Toss to coat and spread out in a single layer.
  • Bake on the middle shelf of the oven until crispy and golden, 8-10 mins.
  • Give the tray a shake halfway through.

TIP: Watch them carefully so they don't burn!

Make the Dressing
4
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl mix 1 tbsp oil (double for 4p) together with the red wine vinegar, honey and mayo
  • Season with salt and pepper, mix well and set aside.
Assemble the Salad
5
  • When the onion and courgette have softened, stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 min more.
  • Remove from the heat and add to the bowl with the dressing.
  • When ready, remove the veg and croutons from the oven, add to the bowl and gently mix.
  • Let everything sit for a couple of mins to allow the croutons to absorb the flavours.
Finish and Serve
6
  • Carefully fold the rocket into the bowl with the veg and croutons.
  • Divide your warm veg salad between plates.
  • Finish everything with a generous crumble of Greek style cheese.
